About Us

Solar, creating the mood since 1978

Established in 1978, Solar Sunshades has become one of the UK’s most successful blind manufacturers and with locations in Cardiff, Bridgend and Swansea, we’re also one of the largest of its kind in Wales. With an ever expanding product portfolio including blinds, shutters, awnings, curtains and motorised products Solar has amassed a wealth of experience and knowledge across all areas of the soft furnishings business.

Our development and diversification strategies have seen Solar go from strength to strength despite the recent challenges of the economic climate. Our main focus is to provide our customers with exceptional value for money, plus high quality blinds, curtains and awnings that will be the right solution for enhancing the control of light and privacy in your home.

Now as ever before professional pride and commitment is at the forefront of everything that we at Solar offer.

At Solar we put continuous improvement in our systems and processes at the forefront of everything we do. The process begins with market research and we are always looking for new, exciting and innovative products to add to our product portfolio and create the very best range of products for our customers to choose from.

As a business we continually invest in the best state of the art manufacturing machinery and equipment available in order to provide our customers with the highest quality product. Our production operatives are a highly skilled and experienced team and each product we manufacture is bespoke with a high degree of personal contact in each product we make.

We trust each member of our team to perform their roles to the best of their ability and we challenge ourselves to get better and improve every day. From the cutting of the hardware and fabric to the assembly and quality control process, our team works hard to ensure your blind is perfect for your home.

As a Welsh company, the products we manufacture are made in Wales for our customers to enjoy and our excellent production team work tirelessly to ensure they create the most beautiful window coverings to the highest possible standards.
